Results from an Euler and a Full Potential Solver are compared for a nonlifting transonic hovering rotor. The correlation is very good on the blade, but the aerodynamic disturbances are damped by the Full Potential Code off the blade tip. The ability of both codes to provide near-field input data for acoustic predictions using Lighthill's Acoustic Analogy is checked. Acoustic results using Euler input data show a fairly good correlation with experiment and with direct Euler far-field calculations, even in the case of delocalization. On the contrary, the precision of the Full Potential results is insufficient for that purpose, and further work is needed to improve the code's stability and accuracy off the blade.
